US Debt Clock Surges Past $18 Trillion - 'Up 70% Under Barack Obama'
WND
The U.S. debt clock has swept past $18 trillion without so much as a flicker of hesitation.
But what is $18 trillion?
How about figuring it in exotic supercars, like those 253-mph, 1,001-horsepower (and 8 miles per gallon) $1.9 million Bugatti Veyrons?
For the national debt, you get just a handful short of 9.5 million of the cars.
How about air-hours for a major jet like Air Force One, assuming operating costs of about $275,000 per hour?
You’d have to rack up 65 million hours of flight, give or take.
And at those burger joints with the tiny $1 burger?
Well, a big pile.
At ZeroHedge.com, commentator Tyler Durden noted, “Last week, total U.S. debt was a meager $17,963,753,617,957.26.”
“Two days later, as updated today, on Black Friday, total outstanding U.S. public debt just hit a new historic level which probably would be better associated with a red color: as of the last work day of November, total U.S. public debt just surpassed $18 trillion for the first time, or $18,005,549,328,561.45 to be precise, of which debt held by the public rose to $12,922,681,725,432.94, an increase of $32 billion in one day.”
“It also means that total U.S. debt has increased by 70 percent under Obama, from $10.625 trillion on January 21, 2009 to $18.005 trillion most recently.”

Whistler Blowers, Insiders
A really simple way to put it that EVERYONE could appreciate, is that if the government had REALLY wanted to put the economy back on track, instead of make the rich, richer, under Obama, they’d have spent the SAME MONEY, to put a new Chevy S-10 truck in EACH DRIVEWAY IN AMERICA!
Yes, for what Obama has spent on his Socialist Nirvana, his selling America down the tracks, his destruction of our nation, he could have taken the SAME MONEY used to jack up our national debt, and bought each-and-every household in America a NEW CAR!
Tell that to the voters, and see who’ll think twice about his ‘grand Obamacare vision’ then.
